PathAI Diagnostics Unveils World’s First AI-Assisted Laboratory Developed Test for MASLD and MASH

PathAI

PathAI Diagnostics, a leading laboratory services company, today announced the world's first AI-Assisted Laboratory Developed Test (LDT) for the histologic scoring and staging of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH). This pioneering advancement will be introduced at the American College of Gastroenterology 2023 (ACG2023) Meeting in Vancouver, Canada, from October 20-25. MASLD and MASH are posing an escalating healthcare challenge, affecting millions of individuals worldwide. Recent estimates suggest that approximately 37.8% of the global adult population suffers from some form of MASLD, with 5-6% of the U.S. adult population at risk of progressing to MASH—a potential precursor to severe conditions such as cirrhosis and liver cancer. 1-3 While the gold standard for MASLD/MASH scoring is liver biopsy, the scoring provided by pathologists can exhibit variability. 4-5 In fact, there can be as much as a 30% disagreement in MASH diagnosis between pathologists, and intra-observer variability can reach up to 41% for the same case. 6 Accurate scoring and staging are paramount, as each fibrosis stage corresponds to approximately a two-fold increase in liver-related mortality. 7 In order to better tackle this growing issue, PathAI Diagnostics developed AI.Dx MASH, a laboratory developed test, which provides AI-assisted histologic scoring that supports expert pathologists with enhanced insights for liver biopsy reporting. "We are excited to bring the world's first AI-assisted Laboratory Developed Test for MASH to market,” said Jim Sweeney, President of PathAI Diagnostics. “The tool uses our deep expertise in AI-powered pathology coupled with our world-class diagnostics laboratory to improve patient outcomes through AI-assisted histologic scoring for MASH." This groundbreaking tool utilizes an AI algorithm that has been proven to significantly reduce inter- and intra-operator variability in CRN scoring. Moreover, AI.Dx MASH reports include image overlays and quantitation, offering a comprehensive view of steatosis, lobular inflammation, hepatocyte ballooning, and fibrosis, thus facilitating more accurate diagnosis and staging. 8-11 “AI.Dx MASH provides a powerful tool for histologic MASH scoring by offering visual image overlays of key features to show how a score was reached,” said R. Shawn Kinsey, MD, gastrointestinal and hepatobiliary pathologist at PathAI Diagnostics. “This addresses one of the key challenges that leads to variability when assessing progression of the disease for a more accurate summary of a patient’s condition to inform future treatment and intervention.” Learn more about AI.Dx MASH and PathAI Diagnostics at Booth 613 at the 2023 American College of Gastroenterologists Meeting in Vancouver, Canada, October 20-25. Alternatively, explore PathAI Diagnostic’s full range of anatomic and molecular pathology services, spanning gastroenterology, dermatology, urology, and women's health, at www.pathaidx.com.

Harvest’s Smart Thermal Battery Breaks $11M Funding Mark

Harvest Thermal

For building decarbonization to succeed at scale, new tech must be clean, cost-competitive, and improve the user experience over fossil fuel incumbents. Harvest Thermal does just that - and its latest round of investors would agree. Earth Foundry led the just-closed $4 million round which included follow-on investments from MUUS Climate Partners and Starshot Capital, as well as new investment from partners including Portfolia, the world’s largest fund of women investors. Earth Foundry’s Managing Director Sara Chamberlain joins Logan Grizzel, Partner of MUUS Climate Partners as Director on Harvest’s board. Combined with grant funding from the National Science Foundation, the California Energy Commission, and other private investors, the investment in Harvest Thermal totals over $11 million. The smart thermal battery™ from Harvest Thermal makes heat pumps smarter, more efficient, and cheaper to operate, enabling scale at a time when electrifying homes is an urgent national priority. Recently, 25 governors announced a commitment to install 20 million heat pumps by 2030 to achieve national climate goals. Each Harvest system reduces 55 tons of CO 2 throughout its life. That's as much as – or more than – you would save by switching to an EV from a gas car. “We’ve designed our smart thermal battery heating system to have an extraordinary climate impact,” said CEO Jane Melia. “I’m grateful for the confidence these premier climate tech investors have placed in Harvest Thermal. They have given us a runway to diversify our product line, expand into new markets, and reach more customers while making homes sustainable for a more livable future.” The company’s core product provides space heating and hot water with a single heat pump married to a water battery. The Harvest Pod®, the brains of the system, decouples the operation of the heat pump from household heating needs – and from when CO 2 emissions are highest. It runs the heat pump during the day when solar energy is cheap and plentiful and releases stored heat and hot water into the home whenever needed. “Harvest Thermal has unlocked the decarbonization potential of heat pumps with its smart thermal battery,” said Earth Foundry’s Sara Chamberlain. “With space heating and hot water comprising nearly two-thirds of home energy use, decarbonizing heating and hot water has the greatest climate impact a household can make.” “Harvest Thermal is perhaps the most effective solution to address one of the biggest contributors to climate change – the heating and cooling of homes,” said Logan Grizzel, Partner at MUUS Climate Partners. “In one fell swoop, the company can reduce CO2 emissions, increase home comfort, and create significant savings for homeowners. MUUS Climate Partners loves this team and we're proud to now be Harvest Thermal's largest investor.” "Heat pumps are a vital low-carbon home heating solution," observed Starshot Capital's Sam Levac-Levey. "However, most people need hot showers and heating in the mornings and evenings, risking overloading the grid during peak hours. Harvest Thermal's unique smart thermal battery enables the widespread adoption of heat pumps while protecting energy grids." Harvest Thermal has achieved wide recognition for its novel climate tech. It won the Consortium of Energy Efficiency’s Integrated Home Competition award and was featured in a popular science YouTube video on Matt Ferrell’s Undecided channel with over 500,000 views. ABOUT HARVEST THERMAL Harvest Thermal is redesigning home heating and hot water for a livable future. Its market-leading thermal battery system cuts carbon emissions by 90% compared to gas furnaces and water heaters and 50% compared to heat pumps without storage. The cloud-connected Harvest Pod leverages software, sensors, and controls to reduce carbon emissions and save an average of 30% on monthly heating bills. It also supports a cleaner, cheaper, and more resilient grid. Founded in 2019, Harvest Thermal has received grants from the National Science Foundation and the California Energy Commission. Other awards include: Consortium of Energy Efficiency, Integrated Home Competition Winner, Sept. 2023 NREL Industry Growth Forum, 2023 People’s Choice Award, May 2023 Edison Award, Sustainable Design, Consumer Solutions, Apr. 2023 Fast Company, Most Innovative Companies "Small & MIghty Businesses", Mar. 2023 For more information, visit www.harvest-thermal.com l ABOUT EARTH FOUNDRY Earth Foundry is an early-stage venture capital firm that invests in transformational clean energy and climate technologies.
